When towing and coming to a stop my vehicle stalls and dies. It will not stay running. To keep it running I have to put in neutral and press the gas pedal to keep it running and then put into gear and take off. This is not safe. It is the 2. 7l ecoboost. I took it to our local Ford where it happened to the tech that took my truck in for inspection and then they said the service tech could not replicate the issue. They charged me $130 diagnosis fee and said they couldn't find the issue and called for me to pick up my vehicle. This is happening all over the country and something needs to be done.
Truck will stall/shut off at a stop while towing. Red battery light will show on dashboard. Car will turn over then shut down again by itself within a few seconds. This happened 3 times at this point- once while in gas station in line to get gas (stationary) once at intersection (stationary at stop light), another time after stopping vehicle to get gas. At first event 30 minutes after it not working a jump started the vehicle successfully, at second instance jump would not start car, had to get towed, at third instance we were able to start vehicle by holding throttle down while putting in drive. Brought to Ford dealership- said nothing was wrong, would not work on truck, said no computer codes were found.
The engine had been dying at stop signs, red lights, and in parking lots up to this point (in drive or park) but ended up stalling eight or nine times on the interstate coming through atlanta rush hour traffic. This almost caused multiple accidents while I attempted to restart the vehicle without power steering and power brakes. The dealership has worked to repair the issue twice so far. I have made another appointment with the dealership and they plan to replace the vct solenoids next. Ford should admit this is a safety issue and initiate a recall to resolve this issue on all these vehicles before someone gets killed.
After driving 30+ min when bringing vehicle to a stop at a red light or parked, truck isles down to 500rmp and rough ideal and chokes like it wants to stall. There is no consistency to this. Has been doing this for 1. 5 years. Have been observing fuel levels, ambient temperature, engine temp and there is no consistency to it. There is never a check engine like that comes on and dealer has done a history search and there are no codes. Mechanics are scratching their heads. No recalls, no service advisories. Don't want to start tossing random parts into it.
Vehicle stalls while in motion, sitting stationary at a stoplight, or in park. Vehicle has stalled multiple times driving down the interstate at 55+ and leaves the driver unable to control vehicle and creates a safety hazard to the driver and others on the road.

Truck experienced multiple sensor failures over several months that reset. Failures include car stalling in intersection, blind spot monitoring, back up sensors, car shutting off and turning back on on its own. Car had to be powered down and shut off for 30 seconds before being allowed to restart. Most recent failure resulted in truck horn going off as well as car turning off while going 35-40 mph then restarting on its own - car surged forward after it restarted itself. At the same time hazards coming on, doors unlocking and locking and rear tailgate opening. After bringing car to a complete stop, shut off car and it turned itself back on (horn went off, hazards went on, doors unlocked and locked, and rear tail gate released). Towed to dealership for repairs and they were unable to recreate the problem.
I've bought my 2016 f150 XLT fx4 SC 5. 0l used with about 69k miles on it and had it for nearly a year now. Since I purchased the truck it will develop a rough idle and will stall while at a stop light. This will happen when I make a multi stop trip, for example if I stop at the market on the way home from work, or sometimes even just returning home from work. So far this issue has only happened on city streets. Outside temps are no factors as this happens in cold wintery conditions or hot and humid weather. Every time the truck stalls, the cel does not come on or any other dash light except the battery light and I can restart the truck immediately with no issues. After the truck restarts there is no fault light on the dash and truck acts like nothing happened. I took the truck to an independent repair shop to have a diagnostic check and they could not find any stored codes or pending codes pertaining to this issue. The repair shop was also able to duplicate the issue but also noticed a strong smell from the catalytic converter. At the moment, it is unknown what's causing my truck to idle roughly and stall.
We just took my 2016 f150 ecoboost to west texas over thanksgiving. Towed under 7500 lbs. Towed completely normal the whole time (15 hours) until the return trip home. About 2. 5 hours into my return trip (I was towing without my husband and with two young kids on a back highway with no cell service and absolutely no stops for 2 of those hours😯) I pulled over to see where my next gas station was and my truck died. It would restart but would die again. I finally figure I'm screwed, I'll try and just hit the gas and go. So I took off and blew through a stop sign and didn't stop until I reached a gas station, where it died when I stopped. . It was Saturday afternoon and all the repair shops were closed and there weren't any parts stores open. I finally unplugged the camper, thinking it was draining my battery and started it up and gassed it to get it going and didn't stop until I reached sonora and camped for the night, about 20 miles away. And then my truck was totally fine after that. I never hooked the camper back up and I had filled up the gas tank and put fuel injection cleaner into the tank and didn't have any more stalls. The only light that came on when it stalled was the battery light.

While driving on the highway at approx. 60mph my Ford 2016 f150 3. 5l v6 lurched and stalled, experiencing a complete loss of power, throttle control and acceleration. This was the 7th throttle malfunction my f150 has experienced in the past 5 months. Each malfunction exactly the same. Since I am now forced to only travel in the far right lanes for safety, I had enough remaining momentum to veer my f150 off of the highway and bring it to a complete stop. With some effort my f150 struggled but was able to restart and traveling a low speeds I made it safely home. Due to the dangerous nature of this incident I have taken my f150 to the dealership twice so far. Ford believes the issue is the electronic throttle body, but they have been unable to fix the problem. Most recently I received my f150 from the dealer only 4 short days ago where they replaced the electronic throttle body, but it had no effect, the problem still exists. The malfunction only occurs during the most dangerous periods of driving, while on the highway/freeway. This malfunction puts the safety of the drivers and their families at risk unnecessarily. I have avoided collisions only by driving and staying in the far right lane at all times. It is only a matter of time before someone else experiences this problem traveling at 65mph on the highway and due to a sudden loss of power and complete acceleration causes a significant traffic accident. I hope this never happens but it is my grave and real concern for my own welfare every time I drive my 2016 f150.
